If it happens to help, this is the only reliable method I have discovered so far for creating GetFeatures on Windows so that they work. 1) Create a complete plain text request 2) Split it into two pieces and copy the part before XML filter to a safe place. http://188.64.1.61/cgi-bin/tinyows?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.1.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&TYPENAME=lv:municipalities&FILTER= 3) Copy the filter part and drop into some URL encoding service like http://www.albionresearch.com/misc/urlencode.php. For example this goes to the URL-encoding service <Filter xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/ogc"; xmlns:lv="http://latuviitta.fi/"; xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml";><PropertyIsEqualTo><PropertyName>kunta_ni1</PropertyName><Literal>Saarijärvi</Literal></PropertyIsEqualTo></Filter> and this comes back %3CFilter%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.opengis.net%2Fogc%22%20xmlns%3Alv%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Flatuviitta.fi%2F%22%20xmlns%3Agml%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.opengis.net%2Fgml%22%3E%3CPropertyIsEqualTo%3E%3CPropertyName%3Ekunta_ni1%3C%2FPropertyName%3E%3CLiteral%3ESaarij%C3%A4rvi%3C%2FLiteral%3E%3C%2FPropertyIsEqualTo%3E%3C%2FFilter%3E 4) Combine the starting part of GetFeature from step 2) and URL-encoded filter from step 3) This new GetFeature can be sent with a browser or with wget or curl. You can guess that I do not really use this method for any real work. Instead I am either using Kosmo GIS as WFS client because it is using http POST (and has a query builder), or then I send requests from browser with POST method by using Poster add-on. However, using WFS through OGR offers so nice possibilities that it would be great to learn some way for making also attribute filters with special characters to work - on Windows and in Finland. -Jukka- _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
